I’m an older millennial. My take on the GenZ entering the workforce: Super accepting of people of color, LGBTQ, vegan diets and green initiatives. Just really fun, pleasant people to be around.
I just changed projects recently from an office that skewed younger and it’s like I ended up in 2003 again. The office is just slightly older than me and it’s just a weird vibe…people randomly ranting about EVs and how they would never own one as if anybody asked; dancing around asking what my ethnicity is as if it matters, etc. Talking bad about Asians and then looking my direction and stopping mid conversation. Ranting about vegans like it’s physically hurting them. It’s disheartening. There’s no positivity and no small talk; it’s just dead silence unless you are hating on something that has no bearing on your life.
